Ja'Tyre Carter Scouting Report

Ja'Tyre fundamentally sound and understands blocking angles, using body positioning to his advantage. Disciplined awareness and good intelligence. He is feisty, tough and plays with a competitive attitude. He has quick and nimble, light on his feet. Very athletic blocker on the move. Good slide and hand placement effectively shut down most speed rushers.

Carter is quick-footed with smooth movement skills to cover a large area. Rangy with above average lateral ability. Bursts off the snap and sets up quickly with little wasted motion. He is quick out of his stance with the footwork to be effective in front of screens. Willing to get out in front of ballcarriers to take out defensive backs and linebackers.

Areas for Improvement

Carter is not physically imposing and has average overall strength. Upper body gets over his feet too often and he easily loses his balance. He flashes the ability to move his man with his hands, but is not yet consistent in this area. He has adequate initial burst should be far better and isn't good enough to consistently hold out elite pass rushers.

Carter is not an explosive athlete and has limited range. Will pop upright off the snap and needs to stay balanced, avoid the habit of lunging. He drops his head too often on contact, which causes problems against swim moves.
